What are your thoughts on the restoration of the Sistine Chapel? Do you think it takes away from Michelangelo's work, or do you think

the restoration was necessary to restore his vision?

Answer:

I believe it would be taking away his work.

Step-by-step explanation:

Michelangelo balked, because he considered himself a sculptor, not a painter, and he was hard at work sculpting the king's tomb. But Pope Julius insisted, and Michelangelo began work on his famous frescoed ceiling in 1508. He worked for four years working on the Sistine Chapel. If we restore it we may never see his original colors and how they have changed over the years, which shows that great masterpieces might slowly fade but never fully go away. UwU Hope I helped~!.............btw sorry I am late lol
